Chapter 265: Celebrate!
"Cheers!"
"Cheers!"
"Cheers!"
...
The villagers below saw that the village chief was so happy today, they immediately finished the wine in their glasses, feeling very excited. The village chief had said it so well, no need to worry about demolition anymore. Who wouldn’t be happy to hear such news? They all immediately drained their glasses too! Bathed in this joy, all the villagers’ faces were flushed with happy smiles.
"This time, Lin Family Village turned peril into safety, and it was all thanks to one person’s contribution. It can be said that without him, Lin Family Village certainly wouldn’t exist anymore. Therefore, he is our Lin Family Village’s great benefactor, and he is Lin Yiwen’s son, Lin Feng! Now, let him say a few words." Lin Guangyi had planned early on to showcase Lin Feng at the village banquet. Lin Family Village was preserved because of Lin Feng, and he wanted the whole village to acknowledge this favor. So, right after the opening speech, he arranged for Lin Feng to speak.
"What, Lin Feng saved the village?"
"Really?"
"Lin Yiwen couldn’t do it, so his son could?"
"He’s so young, how could he manage it!"
...
All the villagers turned their gaze towards Lin Feng who was sitting at the main table. He was so young, how could he be so capable? The whole village was helpless, and even after Lin Yiwen and Lin Dongchen came back, there was still no solution. But after Lin Feng arrived, in just one night, he resolved the crisis facing Lin Family Village. It all seemed like a dream! But now, since the village banquet was happening, it meant Lin Family Village’s crisis had truly passed. The village chief’s words were true, Lin Feng had helped Lin Family Village survive this existential crisis!
Last night, many villagers already knew Lin Feng had helped Lin Family Village. But nobody dreamed that in the span of one night, Lin Family Village would be completely out of trouble. Lin Feng was just too incredible. If it weren’t for Bi Huihuang’s departure and the people of Shen Corporation’s arrival, they still wouldn’t dare believe that all of this was real.
No wonder Lin Feng arrived in such an extravagant RV. It turned out that he was even more formidable than his father Lin Yiwen. But that didn’t seem right either. They had heard that Lin Feng had disappeared while rowing years ago, and to find their son, Lin Yiwen and Zhang Lan had sold everything, including the company, and went to Tianhai. Now, Lin Feng had returned and become so powerful, it was utterly unbelievable!
However, these details were unimportant; what mattered was that Lin Family Village would no longer be demolished, and all they needed to know was that Lin Feng had saved the village. With this thought, everyone cheered again.
"Lin Feng, well done!"
"Lin Feng, you’re amazing!"
"Lin Feng, I want to drink with you!"
...
At this moment, the villagers were completely elated, looking at Lin Feng with smiles on their faces. They were truly grateful to Lin Feng because without him there wouldn’t be any of this. Now, not only had the village been preserved, but Lin Feng had also already planned out the village’s future development!
In such a situation, how could they not thank Song Jie? With nothing else they could offer, sharing a drink with Lin Feng to express their thanks was more than enough!
Seeing the villagers like this, Lin Feng also felt quite awkward. He hadn’t expected the village chief to act this way, making such a fuss about him. But now, under these circumstances, he had to say something, or it would be unacceptable not to.
"All the villagers of Lin Family Village, it’s not as exaggerated as the village chief said. I simply acted as an intermediary. It was the beautiful scenery of Lin Family Village that led Shen Corporation to acquire Zhenqiang Company, obtaining the development project for Dongling Mountain. Moreover, now Shen Corporation has promised to preserve everything in Lin Family Village as is, and develop it into an ancient-style distinctive tourism industry. They are also planning to invest a huge amount of money to fully develop the tourist resources in Dongling Mountain, and prepare to build it into a national-level 5A scenic spot. It can be said that the future prospects for Lin Family Village are very promising, and the villagers will lead better lives."
Lin Feng gave it some thought. Since the village chief had already spoken, there was no need for him to keep hiding it. He simply briefed everyone on the situation, to let them all be happy, and besides, these were things that everyone would find out sooner or later. It was just a matter of telling them in advance now.
"Great!"
"That’s fantastic!"
"A distinctive tourism industry?"
"Wonderful!"
...
When everyone heard Lin Feng’s words, they were all stunned, followed by thunderous applause, because the news was too shocking. It set all of Lin Family Village boiling with excitement. Lin Family Village would finally have its day in the sun, and the days of its people were about to improve significantly. How could this not excite everyone? Moreover, all of this was thanks to Lin Feng. Without him, there would be no Lin Family Village, let alone such good days ahead!
Lin Feng, he not only saved Lin Family Village but also led everyone on the road to wealth. If what he said was true, the villagers’ incomes could increase manifold. They had longed for such days for so many years, and it was Lin Feng, just over 20 years of age, who made it a reality. For this alone, they all owed Lin Feng their respect. He was the benefactor of Lin Family Village and indeed, of everyone there!
"Here’s to Lin Feng!"
"Here’s to Lin Feng!"
"Here’s to Lin Feng!"
...
The villagers could no longer contain their excitement. They raised their glasses and called out toasts because today’s news was as joyful as it could possibly be. Everyone wanted to have a drink with Lin Feng to express the excitement in their hearts.
Lin Yiwen and Zhang Lan, seeing their son so revered in Lin Family Village, felt immensely proud. Having such a son made their lives utterly content. All the decisions they had made in the past were right; although the corporation was gone, they had found a son who surprised everyone. Since his return, he had been continuously giving them pleasant surprises. His parents wondered what else he had in store for them, lamenting only that their son had yet to find a girlfriend, which was indeed a cause of concern!
Lin Dongchen and Wang Li, now witnessing the admiration Lin Feng received throughout the village, were filled with joy. Looking back at past events, Lin Feng’s achievements seemed miraculous. Nothing seemed to faze him, and people like him were truly rare, perhaps even unique in that crowd. They resolved to carefully consider how to bring Xiao Jie and Lin Feng together; such a son-in-law would indeed be perfect, and they couldn’t let this opportunity slip away.
Lin Jie saw Brother Lin Feng basking in glory, and her cheeks flushed with pride. Brother Lin Feng was beyond impressive, having saved the entire Lin Family Village single-handedly. Moreover, he had secured such an excellent project for the village that would lead to swift prosperity—a multitude of gains in one feat! If only Brother Lin Feng were her boyfriend, what happiness that would be, for he knew so much...
Lin Xueyou, sitting next to his father and watching Lin Feng, didn’t know what to say. Someone a few years younger than him had connections that saved Lin Family Village and even kept it from being demolished. All he could do was assist his father with the village’s affairs. What a stark contrast in their lives; they were beyond comparison! Lin Feng had already demonstrated such capability at his young age, which made Lin Xueyou afraid to even contemplate his future!
Song Nancheng now realized that purchasing Zhenqiang Group had been Lin Feng’s idea. It was because of Lin Feng’s influence that the Chairman and his daughter decided to acquire the sizable Zhenqiang Company, something unthinkable in the past. This also meant that Lin Feng had an extraordinary, special relationship with the Shen Family, which allowed him to negotiate major dealings and consistently favor Lin Family Village throughout. Lin Feng was truly remarkable!
With this in mind, Song Nancheng couldn’t help but focus on Lin Feng, unable to understand his connection with the Shen Family...
"Alright, I now declare the village banquet officially open. Let’s celebrate today’s victory and the bright future of Lin Family Village!" Lin Guangyi saw that the villagers were already very excited, so he shouted loudly, and the sound of firecrackers filled the air, marking the start of the true village feast!
"Lin Feng, I toast to you, thank you for saving our home from demolition."
"Lin Feng, I toast to you, nothing else to say, cheers!"
"Lin Feng, drink up, cheers!"
...
The villagers of Lin Family Village, seeing the banquet underway, were indescribably happy. Each one came up with a glass to toast Lin Feng, for he was today’s greatest hero. They wanted to thank him properly, each raising a glass to express their feelings, pushing the festivities to a climax!
Lin Feng was tightly surrounded by the villagers of Lin Family Village, and with no way to fend off their enthusiasm, he could only accept every toast. He merely touched his tongue to the drink, and the villagers didn’t force him; it was the thought that counted. After all, with hundreds of villagers toasting, a mere touch was more than enough.
"I’m really so happy today!"
"Yes, this year’s New Year’s was so gloomy with the relocation issue."
"Thanks to Lin Feng, our houses weren’t demolished."
"More than that, he found us a great project and led us to wealth."
...
Having offered their toasts, the villagers were now thoroughly exhilarated. They drank, ate, and talked about Lin Feng; their affection for him was palpable. Without Lin Feng, they would not be there drinking; the village might not even exist. They were truly grateful to Lin Feng!
They all envied Lin Yiwen and Zhang Lan for having such a remarkable son. If only they had a son like him, they would probably wake up laughing from their dreams!
